The only proper colour for a Jag is BRG, and nothing but.

Gack!

BRG for MGs & Triumphs, sure -- but a Jag should be red or orange. Fire
engine red or pumpkin orange, not some goofy pastel weirdness, either.

A red Jag?
What are you, colour-blind?

Heh. You've not seen me on a day when I dressed myself, I take it... ;)

Red and orange are colours for the wide boys parading their Ferraris and
Lamborghinis down Rodeo Drive, not for cars of class, distinction and taste.

<shrug> I like the slightly garrish colors for the slightly garrish
models of the era. I think Paul's is newer, but the old V-12 XKE in
red... very droolworthy, IMO.

(Just be careful not to get drool on any of Mr. Lucas' wiring, or you
might have it in the shop for a few months... <sigh>)

I'm sort of with you on the mid-life-crisis look -- but I think that
happens more in the driver's seat than in the paint job...
